This goes to show that independent, investigative journalism hasn’t died… it’s just shifted from the people who are doing it (MSM) to the “influencers” on YouTube wearing gray hoodies and shooting on iPhones.
The absolutely incredible work of Nick Shirley, who went to Minneapolis to expose and report on Somali daycare fraud and his resulting 42-minute video has been viewed by 42 million people at the time of posting this article (and counting).
Here is his original post and video:
🚨 Here’s a full 42 minutes of my team and I exposing the Minnesota fraud, which may be the most important work I’ve ever done. We discovered over $110,000,000 in one day. Like it and share around like wildfire! Now is the time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable

🚨 Here’s a full 42 minutes of my team and I exposing the Minnesota fraud, which may be the most important work I’ve ever done. We discovered over $110,000,000 in one day. Like it and share around like wildfire! Now is the time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable
For this to happen we all work very hard and pay very high taxes, the fraud must be stopped.
Nick Shirley claims to have uncovered a $110,000,000 fraud in just one day of being on the scene.
And his video seems to support that claim.
Elon Musk also shared the video and commented on the lack of any community notes on the video on X. A community note will typically be posted when viewers crowdsource an error and post a note to fix it.
Elon Musk responded by saying that there are no notes because it is true:
Because it’s true and just the tip of a huge fraud iceberg https://t.co/0LD6wy2wCd

The truth will set you free!
Just the tip of a huge fraud iceberg!
Among the many signs of fraud, this was my favorite…
Apparently he cares so little for the truth and his skills are so poor that he couldn’t even get his fake name inscribed on the building, misspelling “Learning”:
Still haven’t been able to get rid of the Quality Learning Centre. They care so little that they couldn’t even tell the correct name of the scam. Imagine. pic.twitter.com/4vm9d2VNqX

Not a single child is present…
There is no “lying” of any kind going on…
But millions and millions of dollars were siphoned off from taxpayers?
Bill Ackman has responded and said that it is impossible to believe that this level of fraud could occur without the willful blindness of government officials:
I just had the opportunity to witness this incredible performance. Blatant fraud can be detected within minutes. This is not a disability. This could not have been possible without the willful blindness of Minnesota politicians and government officials. how can do @Tim_Walz Have you allowed this to happen?… https://t.co/gLTsqvHF0K

In fact, the Kalshi betting markets now have a 69% chance that Tim Walz will be charged with a federal crime in 2026:

And make no mistake, things rarely go wrong in the betting markets.
Uh oh Timmy!
I completely agree with this: this should result in a harsh prison sentence:
20 million views. Everyone should see this and repost. great work by @nicksherleyy And his team.
This is disgusting and we demand arrest and harsh jail sentence. https://t.co/nnlfL7D37U

Shut them all down!
We need to set an example so this never happens again!
Meanwhile, an independent, investigative journalist did what all so-called “MSM” should do:
One of the youngest freelance journalists, Nick Shirley did what CNN, MSNBC and Fox – billion-dollar networks – combined failed to do. And he broke the story on X.

He beat them at their own game, mainly because they don’t play the game anymore.
They no longer do true investigative journalism, they simply print and push the propaganda they are told to do.
Not one of these so-called news outlets even bothered to do what Shirley just did:
Why is independent journalist Nick Shirley the only person investigating fraud in Minnesota?
Where is 60 minutes?
ABC News?
NBC News?
CBS?
CNN?
Fox News?
MSNBC?
the new York Times?
Washington Post?
Reuters?
associated Press?
Time magazine?
Atlantic?
Politics?
NPR?
PBS?

Not a single child was found in any daycare/learning centre.
Not one:
🚨 BOMBSHELL: Nick Shirley confronts Minnesota Somali “childcare” centers, forces staff to admit on camera: There are never any children there!
Patriot: “Do you have any children here? Is there any?”
Somali activist: “No!”
Tim Walz needs to resign in disgrace.

Well done Nick!
And if you want to know what the “MSM” is doing instead of actual journalism, here it is: just reading daily propaganda from a script:
Watch fake news busting in action, all reading the same exact script!
Editor’s Note: This is probably the #1 most requested article, people are always emailing me asking for the link again. So I’m reposting it here today for everyone.
Paging George Orwell….
If you think we have a fair and honest and independent media, think again.
You have to see this.
Someone did an incredible job editing together this video from local news stations across the country.
Did you ever think that they were actually covering the news and writing their own content based on their investigation of the news?
barely.
No, they are all given a script to read.
Exactly the same script.
Here it is guys, check it out:
🚨Shocking Video🚨
We’ve always known that media affiliates, from big networks to local news, don’t sell propaganda, but you’ve never seen actual confirmation like this ⬇️ Dozens of networks are reading the exact same government propaganda script where they condemn fake news.
Idea? pic.twitter.com/42k60PSdZK

Amazing isn’t it?
Yes, there is a backup in case it gets deleted.
From Rumble:
Not only this.
These are headlines and social media posts too.
Look at this image:
The Fake News Media Just Found Their New “Script” pic.twitter.com/sWMmsvvCjs

We don’t have news media anymore.
We have an Orwellian “Ministry of Truth”.
The propaganda machine, telling you what they want you to believe.
It is being repeated again and again, hundreds of voices across the country reading the same script.
Can you say “brainwashing”?
Time to wake up America.
